Noah Agard of Litchfield, Connecticut

We are in Glastonbury, Connecticut several times a year, but
today is not one of those times.That is unfortunate, because at its annual meeting today in Glastonbury,
the Connecticut Society of Genealogists
will announce that my essay, Noah Agard
of Litchfield, Connecticut Revolutionary War Soldier won the “Tell Your
Family Story” Essay Contest. This essay contest is a component of the CSG 2014
Literary Award Contest.

I am honored and humbled by their selection of Noah’s story.By utilizing several sources including
Frederick Browning Agard’s 1976 publication Agards
in America, a handwritten account by Noah’s grandson, and the Agard family
bible pages, I shared parts of Noah’s life that are not found elsewhere.
